    Waiting room
    Stephanie W.

    I am very happy with this business. I went to this location for the first time yesterday, November 1, 2023. I decided to start using Renown more often for labs since the results they provide are more detailed than either the ones from LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics. They are similar to the lab reports from UCSF in San Francisco, which I use often and like. Maing an appointment was easy to do online, through MyChart. There were plenty of time slots available when I signed up (although I did sign up a few months in advance), as well as various Reno locations to choose from. Check-in was also easy, as I simply did it though my phone and just signed their check-in clipboard at the front. Since I had an appointment, I was called before the other person who had been waiting longer, though since it was later in the day, that person was the only other one there. It did take some time for the front desk person to sort through everything, because I had a total of six tests to be done from two different out-of-state doctors. [Tip: though you should always consult your doctor to be sure, and this is not to be construed as medical advice, you generally do not need to fast before a lipid panel, unless you have high triglycerides, even though the lab order says you should. Look it up for yourself if you don't believe me.] The good is I did not have to produce any insurance cards since I had supplied that info online. As I waited, I noticed they had a very large waiting room, with patients restrooms, a water dispenser and cups, and even USB and AC charging outlets on a counter, as well as regular AC outlets by many of the chairs. There was also free and easy-to-use Wi-Fi. [Please note, the lab services is co-located in the same suite as the Renown Medical Group (family practice), so you have to makes sure you go to the right check-in (family practice is on the left and lab services is on the right).] After they had finished my paperwork, I was promptly called in. The phlebotomist, Rebecca, was ultra professional and super nice. She apologized as she became the only phlebotomist on duty, as the other had left (although she didn't need to as I wasn't even ready yet). She did the blood draw quite easily, with no bruising left. I also had to provide a urine sample, which I did so in the restroom, which was clean. I asked Rebecca for a receipt, since I needed proof of my visit, for mileage purposes, and she said it would be on MyChart. I was skeptical since the lab I have used at UCSF also uses MyChart, but there is never an after-visit summary. But she insisted there would be one, and sure enough, when I checked later, it was there! As I left, the front desk people said bye to me...very friendly! Parking, by the way, was easy. Even though this office is in The Summit shopping center with lots of tony stores like Apple and Sephora, it is located near the southwest end, so there is plenty of space. The shopping center is also very close to the freeway, which made it even easier. So bottom line: use Renown! The are good people who care!

    I have been at this facility for lab work ordered by a doctor as a drop in patient or with a scheduled appointment. Early in the morning, drop-in works pretty well without having to wait too long. For sure, an appointment makes it quicker. The staff is friendly, professional and proficient. The lab tech was professional, personable, caring and proficient . The facility is clean, spacious and comfortable.

    Gustavo was fantastic. I would highly recommend him. I had multiple lab work needed to be done. Paperwork took about 15 minutes and lab work was done in about 5 minutes. Quick.

Definitely nice to make an appointment in advance online, but unlike most centers I've gone to previously, this one was running behind, and my name was called about 10-15 minutes after my appointment time. The waiting room was a bit depressing. I highly recommend the option to wait in your car when you check in. I would have done that, but I didn't realize the wait time would be so long with an appointment. The room where the blood draw is taken had loud machines running, which was a little unexpected. The technician was nice, and the needle poke was quick, but the blood draw itself was uncomfortable. I had hydrated and the whole process was very quick, but as soon as the needle was out, my arm hurt more than usual and I had immediate bruising in the area, again unusual. Not the best experience overall, but not the worst either. TIP: If you want an early morning appointment (especially if you're fasting), make your appointment at least a week in advance.

There were no paper towels and, even more concerning, no soap available to wash my hands. This is a healthcare facility where patients are providing urine and other specimens. Basic handwashing supplies should be non-negotiable. The absence of soap in a restroom used by patients raises serious sanitation and infection-control concerns. I expect much better hygiene standards from a medical laboratory. This needs to be addressed immediately and procedures should be in place to ensure patient restrooms are routinely checked and properly stocked.

She had a very bad attitude and spoke to us as if she was there working for free and we we're intruding on her space. She kept saying she couldn't find my daughter's information in the system while taking her time and taking long pauses between questions. Emma Vega kept insisting we get back in line while the information pops up. Since when are people pushed to the side because of a "system failure" instead of attending us?! We did not get labs because of this rude, unprofessional woman who for some reason took her hate for her job out on my daughter and I. Emma Vega needs to realize that people have a very specific need for getting labs that are detrimental to health checks for the purpose of wellness and medical adjustments! Disgusting behavior!!!
